Arab Commercial Law

This text give the reader an analysis of existing law and predictions as to likely developments in the years to come with respect to six general topics relevant to the Arab world: Islamic law; corruption; privatization; arbitration; trade sanctions; and e-commerce. Most of the papers gathered here were first presented at a one-day conference in London on July 20, 2000, entitled "Arab Commercial Law - into the Future" (co-sponsered by England's Middle East Association and the Middle Eastern Law Committee of the American Bar Association's Section on International Law and Practice). Some chapters have been updated since to reflect events since the conference.
